When the exams are over, you can try the Stadium in Singapore Polytechnic. We usually observe there on Fridays which are our active days. You may want to leave a contact so that we can contact you if there's any observation.

Hi Sam,
Finally see you in here! Any plans for the Leonid showers in SP? It has been quite some time since Poly organised a session for "outsiders"...are you still in the midst of exams? If so, then never mind. Can always meet up after the exams.

Well, we have alot of choice because it's near lim chu kang.
The place there have alot of dark site which is very near Malaysia too as for location i'm not sure what is the name for it.
If you ( DEW ) are interested we can also ask along COSMO and we meet up at Jurong Point MRT because i found that it's not easy to find singastro member staying around west site to go for a watch.

HI John,
How about scanning the maps and uploading it here for us to see where those places you recommended are?
Thanks!
